The prospects now are that Dakota,
Washington, Montana and perhaps Utah
will be admitted to statehood at the pres
cnt session of congress. 1t seems to take
congress just about so long to appreciate
the Just demands of the territories. Wyo-
ming, as the youngest territory, has had
little to bay regarding statehood, such an
event being considered a matter of the
far-of future. The next five years will
show greater advancement in population
and improvements than have the past
twenty. 1t therefore behoovcs us to be-
gin at once the practical agitation of the
subject of admission. 50 that the event,
when it does come, will not be delayed

GEORGE WILLIAM CURTIS, discussing
the situation in Harpdr's Weekly says:
Nothing could be be more comical than
for Independents to decline to vote for
Cleveland as false to reform, and to vote
for Blaine as the candidate of a reform
party. No party that should nominate
Blaine could decenlty claim to be areform
party. Whatever may have been the
failures and inconsistencies Of Mr.. Cleve-
land in this respect, Mr.. Blaine is the
peculiar representative of things to be re-

The Chicago Tribune in commenting
on the Blaine interview gives the distin-
guished Maine statesman this hard hit:
If a newspaper interview, based on a
synopsis of the presidents message, is to
be taken as more binding han the plat
form of the party, then it would hardly
be worth while to hold another national
convention, and the call for June 10, had
better be cancelled. If Paris has done
its share in furnishing the platform let
Berlin or some other European capital
name the ticket"

CONGREGATION IN IOWA.


There is great uneasiness felt in Iowa
over the recent decision by the United
States supreme court in the prohibition
cases, and the disposition now apparent
to enforce the local laws. There is a vast
amount of money invested in the brewery
and distillery business in the state. In
many instances from small beginnings a
business has been worked up to immense
proportions. aud oftentimes after a life
time of toll and frugality the original
owners have died leaving their heirs
what they considered to be valuable pro-
perties. Under the new order of things
their property may be confiscated and
these business men reduced from affluence
perhaps to penury.
According to a letter in the Chicago
Herald the money invested in breweries
and distilleries in Dubuque alone is
81, 900, 900. The annual product of the
same is $500, 900, and the number Of men
employed lis. Three of these brewer
ies," says the correspondent, are locat-
ed in the northern part of the city, which
is almost entirely populated by Germans.
1t is the most thrifty and ~populous por-
ton of Dubuque, and extends from Thir-
teenth street north to the old fair grounds.
a distance of nearly two miles. The large
proportion of the business men own hand
some stores. and there are very few of
the residents in that section who do not
W their own homes. They pay large
sums into the city treasury in taxes. are.
peaceable and industrious, and contribute
very little to the expenses of the criminal
courts of the city. The wiping out of the
beer industry would speedily depreciate
the value of their property. 1t would be
a blow from which that portion of the
city would not soon rally. 1t would en-
gender bitter feelings against the state,
for no amount of reasoning or argument
can convince the people whose property
is TO be wiped out that the common
wealth is not playing the part of thief and
tyrant."
That this property should be confiscated
by the state without equivalent seems
neither just nor fair, and there is said to
be a growing sentiment in favor of reim-
bursting the brewers and distillers for
what they will thus lose. Some of the
large establishments are already making
arrangements to leave the state and go
into business again elsewhere.

INFANTILE

an infant six months old was attacke ed with Il

remedies failing, we called our family physician,
who attempted TO cure IL bnt II spread with
almost incredible rapidlty, until the lower por-
OF his back down to his knees, was one solid
rash. ugly, painful, blotched. and malicious. We
had no rest at night, no peace by day. Finally
we were advised to try the CUTICURA RENE
DIES. The eject was simply marvellous. In
three or four weeks n complete cure was
wrought, leaving the little fellows person as
white and healthy as though he had never been
attacked. In my opinion your valuable remedies
saved his life, and to-day he is IA strong, healthy
child. perfectly well, no repetition of the disease
having ever occurred.

I'VE MURDERS.

A few days ago there was tsIeeEaphed
over the country from Rockville, Mis-
souri,, the story Of horrible outrage
peFpetrated upon young lady at that
place. The next day the Supposed per.
petFator Of the outrage vas arrested
and was fully identified by the young
lady. His preliminary examination be-
Ran.at she court house at Rockville,
bat before the proceedings we're fairly
under way, the prisoner fell dead In the
courtroom. Fiddled with bullets from
the reviewers Of the brothers Of the
victim Of the crime Of which be vas
accused.
Probably four people out Of FIVE who
read Of these proceedings In the news
papers, said TO themselves that the
wretch was rightly served and that the
action of the averaging brothers was
not only iustihable but eommendable.
Yet II IL nov known that the man who
was shot down without being permitted
10 say word In bis own defense was
innocent Of the crime With which he
was charged, aud, what lie more, the
rash brothers could easily have been
convinced Of this fact and would have
been spared the guilt Of numbering an
innocent and inoffensive man, II they
had not been quite 80 ready with their
Fevolvers.
A few weeks ago q horrible murder
was committed in California. Two
amateur detectives started on search
for the murderer. While proving
through the woods they found q man
Who answered the description OF the
crimin ] in some particulars and who,
they supposed, might be be. They
ordered him to throw up his hands and
surrender. Not knowing whO il was
that gave this startling order or the oe-
easion Of It's being given, the supposed
murderer naturally declined TO comply
and Immediately aftsrward fell dead
with tive rife bullets In his body.
The amateur detectives we're proud
Of their feat until somebody discovered
that the dead man was a quiet and in
offensive ranoheF who was living on a
government claim which be had recent
~ taken up and Who could have no pos
sible connection with the murder.
They then expressed due regret for the
occurrence and we're somewhat grieved
by 10 until ooroner's Jury, after having
viewed the remains Of the murdered
ranoher, declared that the killing was
iustifabls under the circumstances and
that no blame attached to anyone. This
verdict, however, pleasing az IL may
have been TO the hasty detectives. did
not restore the murdered man to life,
nor did Il wash the brand of Gain from
sheiF browa nor the DARK stain Of murder
from their souls.
Such incidents are constantly oocar
ring. They convey lesson which wise
men heed and fools forget. The man
who takes the law into his own hands
and becomes himself she aveuger Of
guilt, should be prepared to accept the
responsibility Of numbering tha limo
cent and 10 assume the risk Of eternal
damnation.
